FFC / FPC
FFC/FPC connectors are mated with flexible flat cables or flexible printed circuits, they allow high density interconnections at low voltage and current ratings. Similarly to card edge connectors, they act as sockets where the cable is mated with no need for a male counterpart, as the contact is made with a trace pattern on the FFC, the cable is kept in place and secured by a latch. FFC connectors are commonly used to connect LCDs, keypads, keyboards and cameras. Being ubiquitous in mobile applications due to their high contact density, small size and low profile.
